Source (Arabic)
يا أَيُّها العادِلُ عَلَى مَنْ فِيْ السَّمَواتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَيا أَيُّها الحاكِمُ عَلَى مَنْ فِيْ مَلَكُوتِ الأَمْرِ وَالخَلْقِ، أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ كُلَّ عادِلٍ اعْتَرَفَ بِالظُّلْمِ عِنْدَ إِشْراقاتِ أَنْوارِ شَمْسِ عَدْلِكَ، وَكُلَّ مُحَرِّرٍ أَقَرَّ بِالعَجْزِ عِنْدَ حَرَكَةِ قَلَمِكَ الأَعْلی،
Shoghi Effendi Translation
O Thou Who dealest equitably with all who are in heaven and on earth, and rulest over the kingdom of Thy creation and of Thy Revelation! I testify that every man of equity hath recognized his unfairness in the face of the revelation of the splendors of the Daystar of Thy Justice, and the ablest of pens hath confessed its impotence before the movement of Thy most exalted Pen.
